Duel Monsters Arena

Duel Monsters Arena is a Single Play mode in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Arena first introduced on October 22, 2014. It is a variation of Virtual Arena mode with only 10 AI opponents (as opposed to Virtual Arena's unlimited, custom opponents), all of which hail from the Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters era.

This mode was temporary, and was removed after maintenance on November 5, 2014. However, players who defeated all 10 opponents at least once were able to receive Exodia Necross in their Gift Boxes after maintenance on November 12, 2014.

"Detonate" is possibly because it represents the explosive properties of "Kuriboh" affected by "Multiply" in the anime/manga. However, this seemingly doesn't account for the banned "Attack the Moon!", which is a unique attack of "Giant Soldier of Stone" in the anime/manga. Regardless, it was specifically included in Yami Yugi's opponent Deck for this mode.

Buster Blader and Gaia The Fierce Knight were awarded as partners to applicable people the same day this mode was introduced (as rewards for a previous event). This was most likely in anticipation of this mode, since their initial Decklists complied with this mode's Deck conditions.
